This course is intended for participants who work or volunteer in a health care setting. You will complete the BLS for Healthcare Providers training through a self-paced online module and then take an hourlong in-person skills assessment.

After you sign up for your skills assessment, you will get the course key via email the next business day from the American Heart Association (AHA) to start your online learning. You must finish it and present your completion certificate at the time you choose for your in-person assessment.

Upon successful completion of the in-person skills assessment, students will receive an email the next business day with instructions on claiming their two-year Course Completion eCard through the AHA’s website. Paper cards will no longer be distributed at the assessment.
